  1. The ladies are leading the way for me: Claudia De Sabe Wendy Pham Valerie Vargas Mina Aoki then Horitomo Horitoshi Family Chris O'Donnell Horimasa Regino Gonzalez Yoni Zilber Andre Malcolm
  2. @semele Grez is KILLING your back!!! You are a trooper to take all that solid black shading in such a large area! Applause!
  3. Nothing planned below the knees for the moment. Kicking around some ideas but don't relish the pain associated with knee caps and knee ditch, haha. No plans for anything on my front torso either. My right thigh is open at the moment and already have some ideas. Will probably see Henning towards the end of this year for him to color in the phoenix. - - - Updated - - - @Russ Your Vargas piece is INSANE! LOVE LOVE the details and the colors. WOW!
  4. Final session on my back with Rubendall today. It's bittersweet. So happy to have this portion of my back finished but will miss the fun times with Rubendall. Great gentleman, incredible artist and shrewd businessman. The complete ball of wax and then some. I still have some appointments booked and I'm thinking about starting something new with him. Henning will top things off end of this year when he'll be visiting and doing his usual guest spot at Kings Ave! Enjoy the pics! Eyes, spine, and the orb/pearl Filled in some more flame work as well Rubendall said when after the orb/pearl is full healed, it'll lighten up to a bit of an iridescent affect. Full moon close-up :o
  5. @Lance thanks for posting the videos. I'm a HUGE fan of Brian Kaneko's work and I can definitely see the Horitoshi influence in it. Amazing stuff!
  6. I hope they make the exhibition catalog available to the public online/mail. Otherwise I would ask a big favor of anyone attending to help me grab a copy. I saw what look like a sneak preview of it on FB and it appears to be a bound hardcopy:
  7. @Killercook76 has half Japanese work on the left side of this body and on the right side of his body is more American traditional work. Let's see if he can chime in here on his own experience and maybe share some pics as well.
  8. @cltattooing More on this: Police Release Video Of Bed-Stuy Tattoo Parlor Rape Suspects: Gothamist
  9. In NYC Woman Raped At Bed-Stuy Tattoo Parlor: Gothamist
  10. In case it wasn't mentioned....KINGS AVENUE. Seriously there is also Da Vinci's as well. Civ does amazing work as well.
  11. Just ordered the new prints. Looks like I'll need more frames! WOOOHOOO!
  12. First and second day are probably the most tough as you're still swollen. I had to basically force myself to sleep on my stomach which is hard and tiring to do over the course of several nights. I usually call in sick or take a couple vacation days off from work. Spend the day mostly on my stomach or on my feet. By the third day I'm generally good to go to sit down, though gingerly. I've had several sessions on my back, ass and back of thighs now which I've gotten use to it oddly enough.
  13. Yes, definitely thinking of a couple of things to start up since I do have the appointments. Depending on how things go, one of the future slots might take a few hours for touch-ups but I'll discuss details with Rubendall.
  14. 28th might be my last session with Rubendall. He thinks we're going to wrap things up in the 6 hours I have booked. I have additional appointment times booked so we'll see. :D
  15. These are AMAZING! Bet it was an AWESOME experience.
  16. @huggernaut agreed with the above! Beau does some great tattoo work and his posts on Instagram are hilarious!
  17. @Fala Slightly off topic but looks like Shinji and his client made it out to the annual New Year's Polar Bear swim in NYC
  18. Spamming the threads on this forum isn't the best way to make friends nor a good way to get people to jump on-board with your idea.
  19. Depending on what day I might drop by since I live about a 15-20 minute walk from the shop. :D
